2081. In a sinister world where human survival hinges on biotechnology, an oblivious sixteen-year-old possesses the one code to undo it all. Can she survive the devious world designed to eliminate anything - anyone - out of the ordinary before it's too late? Mia Love is nothing extraordinary. Just another teenager who wants to please her mother, make snide comments, and become an artist - if it's not too much to ask. But in her rigid, military world, she must do as everyone does; attend the stupid graduation camp that will assign her a boring job. One night, she wakes to a voice telling her to 'Get out. Run'. Moments later, in an eerie midnight camp gathering, she's trapped amid chaos -- bloodied and fighting for her life - when the harmless teens turns on one another; school against school, student against student. Mia survives with the help of her combat-trained best friend, Nate, only to be chased through the dangerous woods by the armed military. Her bio-nanotechnology chooses that moment to glitch, but Mia is determined to solve the mystery. Why on earth did the students turn on one another? Who warned her beforehand? How? If she can survive the night, she might find answers. *** WATTY 2021 SCI-FI WINNER. Featured on: - @action - Thriller [Content warning: This story contains themes of bullying and violence.]
